much. Gigi will continue to check in with you and crews battling the airport fire in Riverside and Orange County. They're slowly gaining ground thanks in part to this cooler weather we're having. Yeah, the fight is far from over, though. Thousands of people do remain under mandatory evacuation orders. Mario has the latest from Lake Elsinore.

As ground crews actively make fire lines to contain the airport fire. Cooler temperatures and more relief are moving in the change in weather overnight slowed the fire's growth and empowered the ground and air forces to significantly improve fire lines, including ones that will protect the communities in the event of any wind changes.
